Do we still need a Bored logo?

Squirrels are the architects of forests, the planters of trees, nature's own acrobats and show a zest for life that can inspire us. Every day should be National Squirrel Appreciation Day!

Many of these (squirrel) migrations were probably caused by food shortages as well as habitat overcrowding. We solved that for them. We not only reduced their habitat, we reduced the whole species by about 90%. The least we can do now is share a little birdseed with them.

Obviously, I think it would be a terrible idea to give squirrels prominence by such a logo. Even the thought of "The Squirrel Bored" gives me the shivers.

I am pleased, however, that I have been able to play a significant role in alerting BBs about the nefarious nature of most squirrels and the evil threat that they bring to the peaceful existence of our day-to-day lives.

I wasn't aware that they made tinfoil beanies small enough for dogs!

Thank you for that, Annie!

And we should never excuse destructive acts of graffiti vandalism with the rationalization that it's "art"! :evil:

That's a nice picture of raspberries, but it doesn't really explain anything about the Bored for newbies.

Maybe if somebody with experience in photoshopping avatars combined that with the WWTBAM logo or something...

Just do what I do and steal logos off the internet.
